Let me revise the situation with an illustration from my mortal character: You have 4 practice sessions remaining. You can practice the following skills: backstab (superb) hide (very good) slit throat (not learned) sneak (very good) track (very good) trip (not learned) >pract trip You do not know of that skill. >pract slit You do not know of that skill. As far as I know, absolutely everything needed to implement a new skill is correctly in place. Can anyone offer even a remote speculation as to why the skills show up, but can't be practiced?
